[DML] stalling again- bleh



Vin11174 has been running fine, for the last two years. Now suddenly itwon't "catch" when I crank it, unless I diddle with the gas pedal.Then when it does start, it immediately dies unless I keep diddling.Then when it warms up a bit, it hunts from 500 clear up to 1100, nearlystalling, then racing. Smells like unburnt gas. 

I had experienced rough idling/hunting/stalling issues for years.  Then two years ago, I replaced my thermal vacuum switch and lambda sensor under the manifold, plus all the vacuum lines, the thermotime switch, even the vacuum solenoid and had my injectorscleaned. 
That cured my stalling and bad idle problem. (A couple years before that, I had replaced the idle speed motor. Also about 3 years ago I replaced the... what the heck is it called... the little cube-shaped control circuit in the electrical compartment. But those things hadn't fixed it.)

Now, the problem has returned. About a month ago, I tried swapping out with a working CPR, and replacing the idle microswitch. No change. Any thoughts where to begin? Again?
